CeO2-based oxygen storage capacity materials in environmental and energy catalysis for carbon neutrality: extended application and key catalytic properties

초록

Reducing carbon dioxide emissions is one of the largest energy and environmental challenges currently faced globally. To achieve carbon neutrality, the development of new technologies and simultaneous improvement of conventional technologies are required. Catalysis, which determines the success or failure and efficiency of the process, is at the center of addressing these problems. Innovative advancements in catalysis have been accomplished through the extensive research on catalytic materials. Oxygen storage materials with oxygen storage capacity (OSC) have been widely applied in supports and active cocatalysts for energy and environmental catalytic applications. This review provides knowledge on the extended applications (reforming, water-gas shift reaction, and partial oxidation of methane (POM) for high-value-added chemicals, including hydrogen production, deoxygenation of fatty acids for second-generation biofuel production, selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3, hydrocarbon (HCs) oxidation for emission control, CO oxidation for vehicle exhaust control and purification of gaseous product fuel, and soot oxidation for the removal of motor-type pollutants) of these materials, which are mainly used as three-way catalysts (TWC) in automotive catalysis, to the carbon-neutral field. In particular, this study focuses on the physico-chemical properties that are closely synergistic with OSC, such as reducibility, dispersion, surface acid/base properties, and physical properties, such as surface structure or morphology.
